This is hand-painted mug made by Japanese traditional craft artisan Mayuki Kato.
It features a very thin structure and a delicate paintings.
For painting, we utilize a technique called "dami," which is a characteristic of dyeing.
Gosu is poured out from a large, thick brush like from a syringe and is painted on the surface of the porcelain.
As in ink painting, the variety that can be expressed with the various shades of blue using the single color of indigo is beauty not found in other pottery.
Only the skill of craftsmen learned over many years can make the beauty of indigo really stand out.
In 1997, this craft -Seto Sometsuke-yaki- was designated as a traditional craft item by the Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry.
It is highly appreciated, not only domestically but also overseas, for the delicate shape of the products and the beauty of the paintings.
Please enjoy my works!
